You Shao received the order. Although he didn't know what the prince had in mind, he still followed the order and went to the dungeon.
The dungeon at the border is where serious prisoners are held.
These prisoners are either spies of the enemy or prisoners of strategic importance, and the criminal laws in the dungeon are all available.
The people Xie Xun asked You Shao to deal with were all the suspects who assassinated Xie Xun.
These people have been punished for several rounds, but they have not recruited the people behind the scenes. They are still waiting for Xie Xun to interrogate him in person after he wakes up.
Now that the prince has decided to silence him, You Shao didn't intend to ask any more questions and solved one of them neatly.
The others were shocked when they saw their companions die like this. When only the last one was left, the man suddenly laughed before he died: "Xie Xun! Xie Xun! I understand, we were all deceived by him! We all
It’s his plan——ah——”
You Shao raised his sword and dropped it, and the man died quickly.
After completing Xie Xun's instructions, You Shao was thinking about one thing when he left.
He was thinking about Xie Xun's assassination.
The prince was in a small conflict and after winning the battle, he was stabbed by the soldiers around him.
At that time, they were preparing to lead the troops back to the camp, and everyone relaxed. So when the soldier suddenly drew his sword and stabbed Xie Xun, no one reacted.
That sword was aimed at the prince's back.
At that time, the prince reacted quickly and Xuxu got out of the way, so the vital part was not injured.
but……
Seeing that the blow missed the vital point, the man's companion pulled out the poisoned dagger again.
If he read it correctly, then the prince could have avoided it...
But in the end, the prince's body seemed to slow down a bit, and then the poisonous dagger barely scratched his right arm...
What did the prince think?
Or is he worrying too much...?
When You Shao returned to the military camp, he was ready to have dinner.
There was a scent in the air. You Shao moved his nose and pulled over a soldier: "This smell? Is there meat today?"
The soldier chuckled: "General Qin brought it! It's really hard for her. She even brought a few live animals. No, it's to give fresh food to the brothers who have been trapped for too long!"
The soldier said and swallowed: "It's so rare! It's been so long since I've eaten fresh meat!"
You Shao also felt a little emotional.
The conditions for people at the border are difficult. In the past, when the army had sufficient pay and plentiful food and grass, they could only eat some bacon because it was easier to preserve.
He almost forgot the taste of fresh meat.
He patted the soldier on the head: "You're worthless! Have you called General Qin? I bought you off with just one meal of meat!"
"How can that be possible? This is what I shouted because of the prince's order! By the way, the prince has called the lieutenants to go to the main account. If you have something to explain, General You should go as well."
You Shao nodded and went to the main tent.
In the main tent, several lieutenants, including Nie Lei, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, had already arrived.
Seeing You Shao come in, Xie Xun nodded and motioned for him to sit down too.
"Does everyone know the order of the imperial court? I have called you here today and I only want to ask you one thing."
"Until the king recovers, the border guard army will be completely handed over to the command of General Qin. Her orders will be like my orders! You must obey!"
"yes!"
After a few more instructions, everyone sat down to eat.
Xie Xun was still unable to eat meat, so he hurriedly ordered the lieutenants to bring their meals to the main tent.
After eating and drinking, several lieutenants also relaxed.
Xie Xun closed his eyes and rested his mind.
When there was no business going on, the lieutenants were on good terms, so they chatted for a while.
You Shao pulled Nie Lei aside and asked in a low voice: "What is going on with the prince and the princess? Why do I feel that our princess is so strong? The prince... always gives in. Could it be that the prince is..."
You Shao secretly glanced at Xie Xun, who was concentrating with his eyes closed. When he saw that he was not paying attention, he whispered: "Is it true that your lord is a strict wife?"
Nie Lei's eyes were complicated, and he didn't know how to speak for a moment.
"How should I put it... Our princess is a hero among women and is very capable. You can rest assured on this."
"As for the prince and the princess... To put it simply, the princess was sincere to the prince in the past, but the prince... was deceived by the concubine, who forced the princess to have a pregnant belly and gave birth to the child outside the house..."
You Shao touched his nose and said, "My lord, this is indeed not quite right... But... you should also try to persuade the princess. It seems that my lord has realized her mistake. It is not a problem to continue to be in such a stalemate. We already have children, then."
We won’t be able to live a good life together in the future.”
Nie Lei glanced at You Shao without saying anything.
How should I put it... The prince has become a heartless man. It seems that they, the bosses who are with the prince all day long, are responsible. What are you talking about!
"There are some things you don't understand... Now the prince wants to compensate the princess well and live a good life with the princess, but the princess may not necessarily do so!"
You Shao was startled, "What do you mean? The princess has already given birth to the prince's child! Can she still live on her own? The family cannot live without a man! If she takes care of a child, in the future..."
Nie Lei covered his mouth and glanced at the prince again, who was not looking here, then secretly opened a corner of the curtain and motioned for You Shao to look outside.
Not far from the main tent, a new tent was erected.
Outside the tent, Qingzhi, who was supposed to take care of the children, was resting aside.
Mu Duo, on the other hand, held the child and fed the child milk skillfully one spoon at a time. The child was naughty and spit a few mouthfuls on Mu Duo. Mu Duo was not annoyed. He wiped the child's face with a smile and picked him up gently.
Pat your child's back gently.
It wasn't until the child hiccupped slightly that he held the child down flat.
"Did you see, burping! I have lived for more than 20 years, and only then did I know that children have to burp after drinking milk! You said you need to take more care of it!"
Before You Shao said anything, the child suddenly cried. Hearing the cry, Shen Xiaoyang came out with a clean diaper.
One of the two held the baby, and the other skillfully changed the diaper. They didn't think there was anything wrong with two grown men doing this.
You Shao opened his mouth: "This...this...maybe they are just trying to please the general?"
Nie Lei curled his lips: "Look again."
At this stall, Qin Rushuang came out.
When the two of them saw her coming, they immediately walked over with their children in their arms.
Shen Xiaoyang could still maintain some grace, but Mu Duo was different. The burning emotion in his eyes...
Anyone who is not blind can see what he means!
It looked like the two of them were bickering for a while, as if they were arguing about something. I couldn't hear clearly, but I was sure they were asking for credit.
You Shao felt horrified by what he saw: "This is happening in broad daylight! You don't even try to persuade me!"
Nie Lei said helplessly: "It's been like this all the way from Kyoto, I'm used to it!"
You Shao hurriedly pulled down the curtain: "But don't let the prince see you!"
But neither of them saw that from the moment they opened the curtain, Xie Xun, who had closed his eyes to rest, had already opened his eyes and saw everything outside clearly.
There were too many emotions flashing through his eyes, and his eyes were fixed on Qin Rushuang and the child, his expression unpredictable.
